    I use gunbroker.com to check values...but it can vary greatly, best bet is to look at several comparable listings and go with the median price...LOL

    Probably the closest thing to the auto NADA would be the Blue Book of Gun Values but it is in book form and I'm pretty sure that it is not published online (although I thought you could get it in a CD). It has a good standardized grading system with excellent pictures of handguns, rifles, shotguns, collectibles, etc in the different grades. Their grades are 100%, 98, 95, 90, etc and they tell you to add or subtract $$ depending on what it may have or not have with the gun.

    As Rocketfoot said, you can check the auction sites to see what they are going for but do take the different prices you see and average them to get a baseline. There are a lot of guns on the sites that are severely overpriced yet people are buying them (duh??, why??, more money than brains perhaps??)

    Sorry Blazer, but your stuff just isn't worth very much. Tell ya what I'll do since I'm such a nice guy. I'll give you a $25 gift card to the store of your choice for each (that's right, I said EACH!!) of your firearms. Act right now and I'll throw in driving up to meet you for the exchange. Think of the pride you have for being proactive to the new adminisration's goals.

    But yeah, your right, it would be nice to see such a book....if for nothing else but the porn aspect of it.

    I miiight be able to go a little higher....if you include the cases.

    Blue book is the industry standard I believe. They offer a online subscription.

    Try bluebookinc.com

    Keep in mind it is a guide. Pretty accurate on some modern stuff but can be a little soft on older Colts etc...
